[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was having lunch with a friend on our building's rooftop (DTDC) when the jets came flying by us. They circled around about five times between 11:30 and noon. It would have been cool had it not been so jarring. We are already on edge, so random loud fighter jets are unnerving. [/quote] On edge from what?[/quote] DP but I'm guessing: escalating political violence including an increase in political assassinations and attempts, the federal government shut down with no end in sight that has left a lot of people in this area without paychecks, ongoing layoffs in this area due to RIFs, continued violence in the Middle East even after the cease fire, escalating violence in Venezuela and continued commentary from our president indicating a desire to go to war, continuing inflation exacerbated by constantly announced and fluctuating tariffs including new ones announced just this week for Canada and China, the ongoing hateful/sarcastic/volatile rhetoric out of the White House and president, the country's diminished standing among other countries due to the forgoing, etc. If you are NOT on edge these days... what are you on?[/quote] [b]Unemployed government workers aren't flying jets in our airspace. [/b] The Middle East isn't flying jets in our airspace. Venezuela isn't flying jets in our airspace. Inflation isn't flying jets in our airspace. Tariffs aren't flying jets in our airspace. Our standing on the world stage isn't flying jets in our airspace. I worry about things I can control. [/quote] UNPAID government workers are! I wonder how this was considered essential, is it part of a trade deal ?[/quote] You really are unhinged if you think our military is going to bomb DC over the shutdown n [/quote] What made you go think of that? My point was the pilots are unpaid, which is stressful for everyone so maybe don’t practice complex aerial maneuvers over heavily populated areas. [/quote] So, you think US pilots are incompetent and so worried about paychecks, they can't focus on the mission?[/quote]
